This constructor interprets year, month, and day as a year, month, and day in the Gregorian calendar. To instantiate a DateTime value by using the year, month, and day in another calendar, call the DateTime(Int32, Int32, Int32, Calendar) constructor.

The following example uses the DateTime(Int32, Int32, Int32) constructor to instantiate a DateTime value. The example also illustrates that this overload creates a DateTime value whose time component equals midnight (or 0:00).
